General Questions
Yes — Rhinox Locksmith is fully licensed, bonded, and insured in the state of Nevada. This matters because Las Vegas has many unlicensed operators advertising online with no accountability. When you call (702) 356-0352, you're getting a verified, licensed professional who can be held accountable. Our credentials are on request and you're protected from the moment we arrive at your door.
We serve the entire Las Vegas Valley — including Henderson, Summerlin, North Las Vegas, Enterprise, Spring Valley, Boulder City, and Mesquite. Whether you're at a high-rise near the Strip, a gated community in Summerlin, or a home in Henderson, our response time is 15–30 minutes. See full coverage on our Service Areas page.
Our average response time across the Las Vegas Valley is 15–30 minutes. We position technicians throughout the valley so we're never far. Traffic on the I-15 or Strip corridor can vary, but we give you an honest ETA when you call (702) 356-0352 — if we say 20 minutes, we mean 20 minutes.

Pricing & Payment
Honest breakdown: a standard residential lockout is $85–$150. Re-keying a lock runs $29–$75 per lock. Car key replacement ranges from $89–$450 depending on vehicle and key type. Service call starts at $0–$50. You get a firm quote on-site before any work begins — no surprises. Call (702) 356-0352 for a pre-arrival estimate.
No after-hours surcharge — same price 24/7 — that's standard in the locksmith industry for 24/7 availability. But we are transparent: you'll know the exact price before we touch anything. No fees added after the job is done. If cost is a concern, ask when you call (702) 356-0352 and we'll walk you through pricing before dispatching.
Yes. We provide a free, no-obligation on-site estimate before any work begins. Our technician assesses the situation, explains what needs to happen, and gives you a clear price — you decide whether to proceed. No charge for showing up. For a rough ballpark before we arrive, call (702) 356-0352.
We accept cash, all major credit cards (Visa, Mastercard, Amex, Discover), and digital payments. Payment is collected after the job is complete and you're satisfied — we never require payment before work is done. Questions? Call (702) 356-0352.
Car Keys & Automotive
Yes — this is one of our most common calls in Las Vegas. We create brand-new keys including transponder keys and smart key fobs from our mobile unit on-site. No tow required.

Almost always yes — often 40–60% cheaper. Dealerships mark up key programming heavily and require appointments days out. Rhinox Locksmith comes to you within 15–30 minutes anywhere in Las Vegas with prices well below dealer quotes. Call (702) 356-0352 for a direct price comparison on your specific vehicle.
Stop — do not try to force it out. That almost always turns a $100 extraction into a $300+ ignition replacement. Our technicians are trained in broken key extraction and carry the tools to remove it without damaging the cylinder. Call (702) 356-0352 and we'll be there in 15–30 minutes.

Home & Residential
Absolutely yes. You have no way of knowing how many copies of the existing keys are out there — previous owners, their family, contractors, real estate agents. Re-keying is fast, affordable ( $29–$75 per lock ), and gives you complete peace of mind. Call (702) 356-0352 for same-day service throughout the Las Vegas Valley. See: Lock Rekeying Las Vegas or Lock Change Service.
Re-keying changes the internal pins so old keys no longer work — faster, cheaper, ideal when hardware is in good condition. Replacing the lock means entirely new hardware, needed when locks are worn, damaged, or you want to upgrade security. For most Las Vegas homeowners after a move, re-keying is the smarter, more affordable option. Our technician will tell you honestly which your situation actually needs.
Yes. We install Schlage, Kwikset, August, and Yale smart lock systems at homes throughout Las Vegas, Henderson, and Summerlin.

Call (702) 356-0352 to discuss the right option for your home.
